Preface for foreigners: Over here they have these green mesh bags you can buy for 99c that are meant to replace plastic shopping bags to save the environment and stuff. You take them with you to the shop and give them to the checkout person and they use that instead of plastic bags.

So, a couple times I have been at the checkout, and they are filling plastic bags with my stuff, and I say "I've got a green bag", while getting the green bag out of my backpack, and they just look at me like I am retarded while continuing to put groceries in the plastic bag.

Why do they look at me like I am retarded? Because my backpack is green. I am standing there with my green backpack saying "I've got a green bag."
